Before the ministers completely left the hall, Zhu Youjian couldn't wait to follow Cao Huachun to the apse, and a large pile of rice paper was piled on the desk: "Huachun, are there so many?"
"Your Majesty, there can be no mistake, the minion has counted twice." Cao Huachun gently patted ****, trying to slow down his heartbeat.
Zhu Youjian was overjoyed. He looked carefully one by one, as if looking at his newborn child, "Huachun, who has the most and how much less?"
"His Majesty, the most is Xu Zhaokui, the Shangshu of the Criminal Ministry, with one million taels, and the least is the few people from the Ministry of Industry, only a few thousand taels." Cao Huachun lowered his voice, he didn't know what Zhu Youzhen's thoughts were. The more money he pays, the more sincere he is, or the less money he pays, the less he is greedy for ink.
"Haha, the Liaodong army pays, and the naval army pays." Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but add 4.600 thousand taels from the mansion of Wei Zhongxian, Ke Yingyue and others, and he suddenly increased by one thousand. More than four million taels, which is almost equivalent to Ming's tax income in one year. He didn't care about Cao Huachun's ideas. He believed that the Donglin Party had no small amount of silver.
After Zhu Youjian left, the ministers were still recollecting every sentence of Zhu Youjian.
After the new position is assigned, there can be no more party disputes
"Now that the new position has not been appointed, I want to impeach the Donglin Party."
I don’t know who it is. He seized the loopholes in Zhu Youjian’s words. He wanted to vent his grievances about losing his wealth and his frustration when signing on to the Donglin Party. If it weren’t for the collective impeachment of the Donglin Party, he would not suffer With such a big loss, since my own life is not easy, the Donglin Party should not even think about having a good life.
"Yeah!" More people recalled, is this Zhu Youjian's fault, or Zhu Youjian's deliberate tail
"Go, go back and write the notes." While there is no letter to the scholar, they have to bite the Donglin Party, and everyone ran away from the Palace of Emperors.
The news of the Jingshi was tense again, but this time it was the Donglin Party members who were terrified. They did not expect that the disaster they provoked would eventually hit their insteps.
The castrated party members who had been bleached by Zhu Youjian went crazy and impeached the Donglin party members, regardless of whether they had any definite evidence.
Zhu Youjian once again issued a martial law order, and no official can leave Beijing, especially if he can leave Beijing with silver coins.
On November 23rd, Zhu Youjian summoned Shi Fenglai, the cabinet's second assistant, and ordered him to sort out all the memorials that impeach the Donglin Party members within one day, list the relevant personnel, and attach evidence of their corruption of ink.
On November 24, Shi Fenglai handed over a list of 145 members of the Donglin Party who were corrupting Mexico in Beijing.
On November 25th, Zhu Youjian summoned one hundred and forty-five people on this list.
On November 28th, the Donglin Party members handed over thirteen million taels of silver that were corrupted by Mexico and collectively signed on the integrity documents.
The principal officials of the capital, whether they were the Eunuch Party or the Donglin Party, were searched by Zhu Youjian and then collectively bleached.
December 1st was the day when Zhu Youjian held a court meeting in the Huangji Hall.
This is the first time that the Eunuch Party and the Donglin Party have met in a meeting at a Korean meeting after the Eunuch Party and the Donglin Party have bitten each other. Both sides have now been bleached by Zhu Youjian, and they have no burden on their backs.
The two groups of people were violent and they were on the verge of breaking out. Some low-level officials with fierce tempers hid behind the crowd and started verbal and even physical clashes. Fortunately, the leaders of the two sides can still exercise restraint and have not yet become a murderous case. .
The servant Cao Huachun stood in the middle of the hall and pulled out a yellow silk from his sleeve. The high-ranking officials standing in the front row didn't realize their eyes lit up.
Cao Huachun's voice was not high, but he was frustrated with a tone: "Holy-Decree!"
Chaotang immediately calmed down, and even the officials who had suffered a dark loss in the conflict just temporarily held back their retaliation.
"Since the removal of Wei Eunuch, the Minister of the DPRK and Central Government has repeatedly impeached his colleagues in the dynasty. I checked carefully and found that the court’s corruption of ink was shocking, reaching a heinous level... Now all the ministers can sincerely regret it. After this time, all the officials in the DPRK will not be impeached for the past."
"In view of Wei Eunuch's disaster to the country and the overlapping of officials between North Korea and China, today I re-appoint officials based on everyone's determination to regret."
According to this imperial decree, the six books have been extensively streamlined, each with only one Shangshu.
The six new books are: Huang Liji, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, Wang Yongguang, Shangshu Bi Ziyan, Shangshu Li Chunye, Shangshu Qiao Yunsheng, and Li Changgeng, Shangshu Shangshu.
Sun Chengzong, who was far in the east of Liaodong, no longer held the title of Minister of War, Zhu Youjian made a separate order to promote him from "Jiliao Economic Strategy" to "Governor of Ji Liao" and continue to manage all important military and political affairs on the front line of Liaodong.
Since all the previous cabinet members were members of the Eunuch Party and could not fully represent the views of the court, Zhu Youjian decided to temporarily abolish the cabinet.
Without the cabinet, the six ministries will be directly under Zhu Youjian's management, and without the cabinet's refusal, Zhu Youjian can issue imperial decree at will.
Among the six Shangshu, Huang Liji was originally the first assistant, temporarily in charge of the six books, and is regarded as the first Shangshu.
In the distribution of the numbers of the six books, Huang Liji and Li Chunye were originally members of the Eunuch Party, and Bi Ziyan belonged to the neutral faction, while Wang Yongguang, Qiao Yunsheng, and Li Changgeng were all members of the Donglin Party, or “rebels” close to the Donglin Party. Wei faction", the Donglin Party is temporarily dominant.
In terms of the division of power between the six departments, the officials and the criminal department are all members of the Donglin Party, but it is Li Chunye from the Eunuch Party and Huang Liji who also comes from the Eunuch Party. , The real power is not big, but he was appointed by Zhu Youjian as the head of the six books. Therefore, the Eunuch Party and the Donglin Party were basically tied.
While most courtiers were still judging the gains and losses of himself and his party, Zhu Youjian spoke:
"Now that the new imperial court has been born, all the love officials should unite and help each other to contribute their wisdom to the development of Ming's society and the Ming." Zhu Youjian changed his words, "Through history, party struggle is the way to subdue the country. From now on, Inside and outside the hall, if there is a party fight again, then you just wait for the scholar!" Zhu Youjian's gaze swept across the faces of the six Shangshu.
"The ministers respectfully listen to the edict, and the party will never fight against the differences." The courtiers all knelt down before Zhu Youjian.
"All the officials are flat." Zhu Youjian stood up and waited for the ministers. "Now there are only the first and fifteenth dynasty meetings every month. After you go back, you must do your own essential work normally, but you must not interfere with the normal work of others. "
"Yes, Your Majesty, the ministers take orders."
Zhu Youjian winked at Cao Huachun. Suddenly, Cao Huachun's sharp voice filled the hall: "San-chao!"
The ministers have to consider their own gains and losses. Many things have not been cleared up yet. Everyone hopes to go back soon and make calculations. They even forgot to ask Zhu Youzhen when the normal meeting began.
The ministers who are about to take off the various animal government offices on their chests are even more drooping with a half-dead look, their souls have never known that they have flown outside the Nine Heavens Profound...
The enthusiasm is long and short, some are happy, some are sad, some are still the same, and some have left their jobs and returned to the head.
…
Sun Chuanting from Shaanxi sent someone to Beijing to meet Zhu Youjian.
Shaanxi’s taxes this year reached a record high of 1.6 million taels, surpassing several steps in one fell swoop, becoming the seventh largest taxing province after Southern Zhili, Northern Zhili, Zhejiang, Huguang, Guangdong, and Sichuan.
However, after Zhu Youjian left Shaanxi, Sun Chuanting lost the backbone, so he directly sent the memorial to Zhu Youjian to ask about the next development direction of Shaanxi.
Accompanying the messenger to Beijing was an unemployed person named Huang Er. Huang Er met Zhu Youjian in Guide Restaurant when he was going to Xi'an. At that time, Zhu Youzhen had some thoughts in his mind, so he asked Huang Er to go to Yansui to find himself in the future.
Later, Huang Er was unhappy in Guidebao, so he went to Yansui to look for a man named Wang Xin. After many inquiries, he found out that Wang Xin was actually Xin Wang Zhu Youjian.
However, Zhu Youjian left Yansui and returned to the capital to become emperor. Huang Er felt infinitely sorry. This time, Sun Chuanting sent someone to Beijing to meet Zhu Youjian. Huang Er found the opportunity to beg the messenger to take him and come to the capital with him.
After reading Sun Chuanting's memorial, Zhu Youjian couldn't help laughing. He wrote 20 characters on Sun Chuanting's memorial: "Be bolder, move faster, be heavier in business and industry, and be more stable in agriculture." Then he stayed. After getting off Huang Er, send the messenger back.
On December 3rd, Zhu Youjian lay all morning in the Xi Nuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace.
In his later lives, he developed the habit of lying in bed at night with his eyes closed and thinking. Now the Eunuch Party and Donglin Party have basically been recovered, and he has to think about the future.
The future of the court.
Daming's future.
Own future.
But Zhu Youjian is not free at night now. Wan'er and Hu Xinxue have already returned to Beijing and are staying in Kunning Palace temporarily with Zhou Yufeng. Zhu Youjian sleeps in Kunning Palace every night.
In name, it’s a peaceful bed, but in fact there are two concubines around him, especially with the little padded jacket Wan'er. Zhu Youjian has no time to rest at night, and no time to think.
Zhu Youjian sometimes wondered: no matter how many women the emperor had, it was the concubine of the first emperor Lin Xing. The ministers would not object to it. The ministers even encouraged the emperor Donna's concubine to choose more beautiful women to enter the palace and give birth to more princes , Whether it is to make the emperor tired day and night, so as to languish in the court, they can control the court and increase their power.
According to the vision of the ministers, every emperor should lead the same life:
There will be a meeting in the morning.
Read memorials in the afternoon.
Plowing the fields at night.
If Zhu Youjian also lives according to the wishes of the ministers, then he is the emperor, not Zhu Youjian.
Does the emperor have his own time
Does the emperor have time to rest
Does the emperor have time to think
Fortunately, for the time being, Zhu Youjian was only holding the first and fifteenth day of the dynasty meeting. The rest of the day was saved in the morning so that he would have time to think about the future.
Since the time for reading the memorials cannot be saved for the time being, and since the time for extensive farming can never be saved, it is necessary to save the time for the morning meeting.
Zhu Youjian became more determined not to go to the court in the future, no matter how the ministers objected, no matter how difficult he encountered, he would wake up naturally from sleep.
